The comic is notable for numerous reasons. Firstly, it featured the return of [[Katie Cook]], who was apart of the original creative team for the [[My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (comic book)|''My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic'' comic book]], writing the first handful of stories before she left [[IDW Publishing]] sometime after the publication of "[[The Root of the Problem]]". Secondly, it marks the first time ''Friendship is Magic'' has ever been included alongside other major Hasbro brands in a more meaningful way than small toylines and advertisements. Finally, it was one of the very last "IDW Universe" comics ever published, as the franchise was rebooted only a few months after its publication.

Although the cover features the [[Mane Six]], the only ''My Little Pony'' story is a non-fiction anthology focusing on the career of Katie Cook, her home life and her relationship with the franchise.

The comic is named after Synergy, the computer from ''Jem''.

Synergy: A Hasbro Creators Showcase is an anthology comic book published by IDW Publishing celebrating the women of Hasbro. It's mostly geared towards IDW Universe properties, but contains some My Little Pony material as well.

The comic is notable for numerous reasons. Firstly, it featured the return of Katie Cook, who was apart of the original creative team for the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic comic book, writing the first handful of stories before she left IDW Publishing sometime after the publication of "The Root of the Problem". Secondly, it marks the first time Friendship is Magic has ever been included alongside other major Hasbro brands in a more meaningful way than small toylines and advertisements. Finally, it was one of the very last "IDW Universe" comics ever published, as the franchise was rebooted only a few months after its publication.

Although the cover features the Mane Six, the only My Little Pony story is a non-fiction anthology focusing on the career of Katie Cook, her home life and her relationship with the franchise.

The comic is named after Synergy, the computer from Jem.
